## NS.scriptRunning() method
Returns a boolean indicating whether any instance of the specified script is running on the target server, regardless of its arguments.
This is different than the isRunning function because it does not try to identify a specific instance of a running script by its arguments.
<b>Signature:</b>
```typescript
scriptRunning(script: string, host: string): boolean;
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| script | string | Filename of script to check. This is case-sensitive. |
| host | string | Host or IP of target server. |
<b>Returns:</b>
boolean
True if the specified script is running, and false otherwise.
